congrats bubba!

the d3-reticles are each 20 overlapping partial transparent textures with alpha channels, and at least 6 or 8 rendererd at the same time. probably it just hits some strange ogl-limit. just a guess.

DigiJo

try iview, great video-conferencing software and free. its like a mirc irc-client with video.

could probably a name bann on the word "test", try to post here:

http://www.descentforum.net/ServerOps/

a lot of serverops are reading there.

DigiJo

often the throttle is the problem jbomb. if you havent centered the throttle on axis detect, d3 will think the throttle is the first axis moved and assign it to the function you wanted to have the twist.

center the throttle and try again.

DigiJo

hey testi, your missing pkzipfix.exe from 1993. tsktsk its a must have

the only good moderator /administrator is one who rarely ever touches the admin /mod functions. the rest is just on a selfish powertrip, egomaniacs crying for attention. ever thought about the meaning of the word moderator? a moderators god damn job is to keep a discussion civil, and keep out person...

DigiJo

dunno what game you like to play suncho. ;) but d3 singleplayer never sucked, imho it was very good and an big improvement over d1, d2. ever tried d3 coop? big big fun. you cant release a game this days with a singleplayer where every level has the same goal, the same scheme, the same way to win the...

DigiJo

and who will give us new features and bugfixes for d3edit? the last versions including d3edita3g are from atan

DigiJo

welcome phantom. i am in if our captains get a match going

DigiJo

i like subway, if the unmodded version would be up i would play it all day. the level itself is very good made, just the weapons are overtuned, well or i just dont learn how to use them right. want levels that suck? look at the serverlist, all the supersmall 2-room / 15-faces level played all day. t...

DigiJo

i like the idea of a dynamic cockpit-view, shaking on hard moves and weapons-impact. this could be a serveroption, enabled and disabled by servers. d3 had the dynamic lighning already, so a ship can hide into the dark if the server wasnt on fullbright ships. a nighview switch would be fine, where th...

DigiJo

its a continuous rotating subobject like the powerups are using. well it works, probably with scripting it would be possible to make user-interactive rotating.

oh the enginefans do rotate too.

DigiJo

rotational animations working fine for d3-ships, i have done that with the vauss-barrels at the pyrogt:

i dont think that other types of animations are possible for d3-ships though.

DigiJo

hi arol, hmm got your hardware specs from the other thread, they are very low, even for a so old game like d3. what operation system are you running? if you have a windows os, what os? what is your directx version number then? 9.0b is the newest. another question is, how big is your harddrive and ho...

DigiJo

win xp , 2k etc. are all multiuser-os, why do you work and play in an admin account? if you browse with your ie in an restricted user account most likely nothing can install into your system cause ie has the same rights as the restricted user then. use the admin account only for driver updates, win ...

DigiJo

permission client/server netcode is the best netcode for online games? and its d3 implementation sucks? hmm in my opinion p/cs is only good for lans in any game. the c/s, c/sd modes from d3 are mostly perfect cause it gives a very smooth gameplay impression even on higher pings, and didnt we permane...

DigiJo

you would get most performance win out of a new mainboard + cpu, d3 on a 2000+ amd xp or a smiliar intel-chip makes it feel like a new game. graficboard is secondary, your radeon 7500 will do the job fine, a 8500 or a same generation geforce so has lots more power and the price for it on ebay isnt w...

DigiJo

if you want have control over your friends computer with radmin, he needs to intall the serverpart of r-admin, you need to start the client part of radmin. (client controls server) in the radmin client part you put in the ip of your friend and try to connect. be sure your friend has the default port...

DigiJo

hmm i think the descent-series has a great singleplayer and a great story too, and there are higly underrated mods like coop and roboanarchy that got almost never played even thou they are great fun. and in the fs-community there are tons more sp-player then there are mp-player, in d3 it is the same...

DigiJo

cx offers a automated process with a batchfile but i guess that wont work on mac. so do enter the ip/port manual in d3: d3->multiplayer->direct tcp/ip-> type in the adress like this: 217.160.167.30:2094 (for example, 217.160.167.30 is the server ip-adress, 2094 is the server portnumber) and then pre...

DigiJo

hey davey, nope d3 isnt dead. pxo is, and probably wont come back. now that pxo is gone, all servers switched to tcp/ip, a good site do browse is esas tracker descent.cx: http://d3.descent.cx/tracker.d3 a very good standalone tracker with d3 support is kquery, but i am not sure if there is a mac ver...

DigiJo

uhm, i have read some of the threads on avault and hlp, 24+ sites. thats the mother of all flamewars right?

DigiJo

Look at me! i'm a retard and a piece of crap that asked for warez and now I have a HUGE bullseye on my back! Kick my ***. please.

i assume someone of the mods here have deleted the original posterÂ´s text and edited that in right?

DigiJo

add a few, lets say 20 to 30, from europe (netherlands, germany, england, denmark,norway, sweden, finnland mostly) and some from australia and new zealand. they all dont play at 9pm est ;) and even more who dont play regulary, but once in a while and that for years now. still a lil bit depressing bu...

DigiJo

your right jeff, ghost is an imagetool. you can make nice backups from your partition but not fix it. price: 70us$. ntfsdos has no write capability, read only. ntfsdos professional can write, but is only avaible in the administratos pack, us$300+ that leaves alone the xp recovery console. imho using...

DigiJo

ntfs is some kind of closed m$ standard and they never released any info about it. so if you converted your system-partition to ntfs you cant access it with any other system to fix your os or do a image for that partition. good luck if you get a v-infection, boot-disks or linux boot-cds wont help yo...

DigiJo

Pyromania, best and most complete d3-mod ever

DigiJo

yeah this level is great. by the way if you are outside and cant find your way, look for color stripes at the wall.

DigiJo

yes merc is d3 v1.2 or 1.3, that could cause probs if you install it on a already patched d3 1.4

DigiJo

i have set kali to open chat in a new window, that way i can watch chat and gamebroser at the same time.

DigiJo

how about wishbone? it rocks. (L1 of chaos)

DigiJo

welcome ned, may the superlasers be with you

DigiJo

hmm voted yes, would be cool. on the other hand we already have two great mods, coop and roboanarchy, wich both are great fun and allow botmatches. they are just rarely hosted and played.

DigiJo

DigiJo

yes vgg everybody, man did i missed a good entropy game

DigiJo

i think dogfighting is on the end, hey for the price of 1 superfighter like the f22 or the su37 you can buy a hundred guided or seeker missiles. btw saw a video from the su37 flying on a techchannel, that thing makes manouvers you think would be absolute impossible for a plane, really. but what is i...

DigiJo

almost all digital cameras store a lot of technical information in hidden metatags in the pictures, called the EXIF-Tags. get a free exif-viewer here: http://www.amarra.de/exif_uk.htm take a picture with your new cam and open it with exif-viewer. probably there is a general picturecounter in. dont l...

DigiJo

omg he will pretty sure torche himself with his selfmade rainpipetank on the back. but hey the pictures look really insane. if someone here would run through the streets with such a thing they would call in gsg9 to take him out lol.

DigiJo

have you read "the fountains of paradise" from arthur c. clark, 1979? fantastic book (well like almost all from clark), has exact this topic (elevator to space).
